With the Marta, Helena de Natalio brings us the kind of clutch that doesn’t need a red carpet to shine.
While so many clutch purses only suit after five wear, the simply chic styling of the Marta make it just as appropriate for daytime use. The lush Argentian leather needs little embellishment, but the polished turnlock clasp brings an added dose of elegance.
Some may be disappointed by the conservative tones chosen here. Black, caramel, and blue won’t exactly set the world on fire. But the shades are entirely appropriate for a purse which strives to suit any occasion or season.
These basic tones are the ideal foil for the playful printed plainweave fabric which lines the Marta’s interior. The space is simple, without pockets or pouches, but it’s not large enough that this poses a real problem.
I always appreciate a carrying option when it comes to clutches, so I’m happy to see the Marta comes with a leather wrist strap. This might not be as convenience as the over-the-shoulder chains we typically see, but it will be much more comfortable.
$237 is pretty pricey for a clutch purse, but the high quality fabrics and versatile look help us justify the expense.
